THE FRANK MEAD CASE.
Human life Held Cheap.

Human life is held cheap, especially where
murderer has influential friends busily en-
gagged in thwarting the ends of justice in his
behalf. We were we'll acquainted with Mead
when he was one of the editors of the old
Pioneer. He is a good-heaFted man, and IN
his right mind would not have committed the
crime he is now being tried for. At the time
he was doubtless frenzied with liquor, in
which for years he has kept his system pretty
thoroughly picked. Let any individual
without friends at court commit similar
crime and he would surely go to Saltwater
for term of years.

"Zere," said he, "take-er-zat up.

Once more the porter tripped up the marble
steps to the door of the Patti suite, where the
great actress was quartered, and in about
two minutes he came back, and walking up
to the little man, who was smilingly contem-
plating the dome Of the rotunda, handed him
a slip Of paper.
The little man tipped his hat again and
smiled broadly as he took the paper and read
the following:

ALIvELY DEBATE.

 with Relation to the Temperance Ruaaffon.

Ministers and Politics Partfc cu1arly
 with Relation to the Temperance
 Question.
 At the meeting of Methodist ministers yes
 terday at the First M. E. church very inter
 esting discussions were held. Rev. MT. Ham,
 mond's paper was on the subject, fought
 church organs or the Christian pulpit ever to
 assume 8 partisan attitude on political ques
 tions?' He held the affirmative, maintaining
 that it was sometimes essential to success in
 dealing with moral questions to follow one's
 convictions even into active work in the poli-
 tical arena. The temperance question was one case for instance where such action might be requisite. Mr. Hammond's position was we'll combatted by Rev. MT. Fordham, who thought the church had no business with politics. He cited from church and national history to sustain his ground. He thought too that when the church took on 8 political aspect it gravitated into church of the State. The subject was discussed vigor- ously and it was evident that there were sev- eral good debaters present. Some held that | it was hardly possible for 8 clergyman to clearly and honorably follow his convictions | as to total abstinence and the evil of rum without fighting for his principles even as a political issue. Several amens greeted Brother Downing when he came down flat footed with the sentiment that no Methodist minister would be thought less of for advo- eating what he thought to be right even if | the question was in politics. There were several sharp and bright five minute talks on the subject and it was evident that the tenn perance question and it's relation to politics was uppermost in the minds of the meet. ing.

FOR EFFICIENT NURSES.

The Thirteenth Annual Meeting of
 the Connecticut Training school
 Yesterday.
 The Connecticut Training School for Nurses held it's thirteenth annual meeting in the dormitory of the State hospital on Howard avenue yesterday afternoon. The meeting began at o'clock by an opening address by Mrs Noah Porter, president of the school. She spoke of the nurses as be- longing to very intelligent class, we'll ual- fled to improve their advantages and become competent and thorough nurses. She said that the public may be assured that the nurses sent from the hospital and the gradu- ates whom they recommend are worthy of the confidence of those who employ them and of the physicians and surgeons under whose direction they minister to the sick.
 The report of Mrs. E. H. Jenkins, the sec- retary, wife of the vice director of the Con- necticut agricultural experiment station, showed the present number of nurses in pupilage to be fl, of which number 32 are in the first year. The number graduated during the year is 23, several of whom have taken post graduate course in the Child's hospital and the maternity wards of the New York inf1rmary. There has been higher standard in the classes and the pupils have been taught in a wider range of study. The report contained much interesting mat ter in regard to the general courses of study pursued in the school, the improvements made and the general work accomplished during the year.
 Mrs. Professor Day, treasurer of the ex- ecutive committee, which administers the affairs of the school, reported that the re- ceipts for the year have been $6, ,S97. 65 and the expenses $6,61S.05, leaving balance of $1. 800.

 Linonia Hall was well filled, last evening, many citizens of New Haven being presnt to listen to ex-Governor Daniel H. Chamber lain on ssEducation in the Southern States" President Dwight introduced the speaker as being an excellent example of the manner of man he meant when he oke on what Yale student ought to be- The Blair bill occu- pied most of the speakers attention, and re- ceived the speakers strong condemnation as wholly insufficient School funds must be drawn from the resources of the people, the speaker said. The Blair bill is 8 curse, a hindrance and not an aid. Such gifts are not fitted for the ends proposed, and are not constitutional. He then read letter of an old graduate, southerner, on the question, stating that the bill could not be forced upon the Southe It amounted to the same as giving to each State 40 acre and mule That educa tion is incomplete and poor in the South is evident, but the work is we'll begun and time will see it carried out. The field for bounties is wide Political clamor, noise, etc., are things of the past. Nothing seems so un- reasonable as haste to cure the ills at once. He quoted Gladstone in the Irish bill, that little by little the progressive growth will cure the present gigantic evils. The speaker was listened to with rapt attention, and was loudly applauded.

T0 Chief Gerdenier of Bridgeport.
 Chief Gerdenier, of Bridgeport. was an un- usually happy man Tuesday evening when on being picked up on the street and escorted to No. 5's house in that city he was con- fronted by big gathering of the fremen and presented with mammoth frame of mahog- any, handsomely carved, containing the pie lures of each of the seventy five fremen of the Bridgeport fire department, handsomely grouped. The frame cost $200 and is seven feet eleven inches high and five and one half feet across. eeches were made and the best of good feeling prevailed. The frame is one foot less in height than the mammoth one at the police headquart CTS in this city donated by MT. F. A. Bowman, of thi city, and which has the pictures of the members of the force. It is of the same width. The portrait of Chief Gerdenier was 11x14 inches in size. His three assistant chiefs were grouped near him, their photos being 8x10 inches. The pictures of the foremen were 7x9 inches and the hosemen, drivers, engi- neers, etc, were all taken regular cabinet size

EFFICIENT oomm1rrEEs.
Alter Notes of the Engineers, Grand
 Reception.

After Notes of the Engineers Grand Reception.
 The engineers grand ball resulted, as usual, in being financial ss we'll as big social success. The amount cleared is not, of course, ascertained, but despite the heavy expense is quite an item. Much credit is due the very efficient work done by the com mittees, and especially the executive com mittee, upon whom devolves much of the labor Train Dispatcher Chatterton, as usual, lent his valuable aid and the perfect symmetry of the grand march was due to his direction. He, as is we'll known, was one of the chief originators of the engineers ball together with his efficient coadjutors, Engineers Corbett and South worth, and has every year for thirteen years been chairman of the floor committee. His wife was-de- tained at home owing to the illness of Miss Jessie, who their many friends will be glad
 to learn, is recovering after a two weeks' ill., ness with pneumonia which, was at one time
 very serious, but is now broken under the efficient care of Dr. Skiff. The young lady was just on the eve of departing for three months' stay in Pennsylvania when taken i'll. MT.
 Chatterton's younger daughter, Miss Emma,
 was present with her father and graced the dance with Mayor York for partner. En- gineer John Southworth, chairman of the reception committee, was i'll at home, as also was his wife, and MT. Southworth's du- ties devolved upon Engineer Charles Smith of the Shore Line, while Engineer Close, chairman of the executive committee, was also not present owing to the recent death of his brother, who was also an engineer, and his duties devolved upon Engineer George H. Allen of Willimantic. Engineer Keeler, as- sistant floor manager, ably and skillfully managed the many duties of his position and to the complete satisfaction of all. De- spite the unexpected changes on the commit tees, the success of the management was, as usual, excellent, owing to the exertions of those in charge. The engineers ball has be- come lasting institution among the nota- ble social features of the winter season in New Haven.
